Do you use your ISP's SMTP server on your .Mac account?  Check in your 
mail settings.  Many ISPs block you from using their SMTP server unless 
you are connected to the internet via their network.  Other ISPs have 
other requirements; authenticating for SMTP, checking POP/IMAP mail 
within 15 minutes of sending, etc.

It might help to try using the .Mac SMTP servers, assuming of course 
the ISP you use while traveling doesn't block outgoing SMTP mail (like 
I know MSN does, I think Earthlink might as well...).
